SUMMARY:Challenging the ‘Normal’ in Cold War South Korea and Japan .Session A:HIDDEN SPACES: TRAVEL\, MIGRATION\, AND DEVELOPMENT
DESCRIPTION: \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese workshops are intended to facilitate greater communication and collaboration among scholars of Japan and Korea who work on issues of gender and sexuality\, often in isolation from one another. We believe that such “queer” dialogues across borders and cultures offer a challenging yet vital opportunity to forge new intellectual and institutional bonds at a time when powerful forces continue to silence\, erase\, and marginalize seemingly minor subjects and their important points of view. \nThe upcoming workshop\, “CHALLENGING THE ‘NORMAL’ IN COLD WAR SOUTH KOREA AND JAPAN\,” will take place over the weekend of 11–13 February 2022. (See below for a detailed schedule.) This final workshop considers the intersections of postcolonial sentiment\, Cold War capitalism\, and cross-border travel in the wake of Japanese imperialism and US military occupation. By examining the circulation of bodies\, goods\, and ideas across national\, regional\, and other types of spatial boundaries\, the three papers seek new ways of understanding the normative configurations of sexual practice\, corporeal embodiment\, and gender performance that helped sustain a superficially stable\, yet deeply fractured\, Cold War order in Northeast Asia. \nPreregistration is required for this event. We particularly invite the participation of scholars whose work focuses on gender and sexuality in East Asia. To register\, please fill out our RSVP form by February 10: \nhttps://forms.gle/z1xbiAYiyDyWfexS6 \nA day or two before the start of the workshop\, we will send an email to all registered participants with a link to the event. If you have any questions or trouble with registration\, please email us at queeringthestraits@gmail.com. \nPLEASE NOTE: TIMES ARE IN SEOUL/TOKYO TIME ZONE \nSession A \nHIDDEN SPACES: TRAVEL\, MIGRATION\, AND DEVELOPMENT\nSaturday\, 12 February 2022\, 9:00–11:45 AM\, Seoul/Tokyo time * \nOPENING REMARKS \n9:00–9:10 AM \nGregory M.
